It was a disappointing day for Bo'ness United as they were well beaten by Sauchie Juniors in their second League Cup section game. More worrying was the disappointing display from the BUs who struggled to make any sort of impact on the game.
Sauchie started the better side with shots from Brian Morgan and Chris Purdie and BU keeper had to do well to punch away a James Donaldson free kick cross.
Bo'ness got into the game for a short spell when Graeme McLaren got in a few crosses that tested the Sauchie defence. However the revival was short lived and it was Sauchie who went ahead in 30 minutes. Kevin Watt looked to have been fouled in the middle of the park, but the referee waved play on and Steven Bell cut into the box before slipping the ball past Scott Christie from close in.
Sauchie continued to look the better side and although Bo'ness won a few corners before the break they were unable to capitalise.
In the second half Bo'ness fared little better and it looked like mission impossible when Sauchie scored again in 60 minutes. Steven Bell split the Bo'ness defence to put Adam Bonar through and although Jamie Chalmers got in a tackle he only succeeded in putting the ball in the air and the Sauchie striker headed over Scott Christie into the net.
Bo'ness's misery was compounded in the final minute when Derek Colquhoun was shown two yellow cards in quick succession to be sent off.This report has been submitted to the website of Bo'ness United Football Club and is the property of the above website.
